I just spent the night at Birk's last night(Sept. 10). The place is an oasis. I was hiking the entire trail, and needed a left from McKittrick into Hermann. Rick picked me up within about five minutes of my call. I asked if he would mind pulling into a drive thru to let me pick up something for dinner. He countered with an offer to share his pizza back at the house. It tasted great! The bedroom was wonderful. Breakfast was great! Since my cellphone(Sprint) won't work in Hermann, he even loaned me his to call home and get a ride.
This is my second time at Birk's, and I hope to pay many more visits in the future. You can't go wrong by staying there!
